Sigh of relief. Am I right?

1. In a sane universe it would be much more.

But I'll take it and hope it improves soon.

2. Yes and no

I was relieved at first too and still am, but a few words of caution:

It's down from a 10-point lead last month, although that may have been of registered rather than likely voters
In a 4-way race, she only leads by 2
The poll was conducted mostly before Sunday, and before the negative media coverage since the incident Sunday fully had a chance to reverberate

I am relieved that she's still up and this poll is not as bad as I had feared, but I wouldn't say I am jumping for joy yet.

3. I've heard from the polling experts here, that you should add 5 points to Hillary with Q.

That would mean she's ahead by 10!

4. We're 8 weeks away from the election. There's no relief in sight.
